Medicare self‑enroll means you complete your Medicare decisions online, at your own pace, without pressure calls or sales tactics — using clear guidance to choose coverage for the 20% Original Medicare does not pay.
Why This Matters Now
For decades, seniors were told Medicare was too complicated to handle alone. That fear created an entire industry built on phone calls, commissions, confusion, and rushed decisions.
But here’s the truth nobody says plainly:
The system has changed. Knowledge has changed. Technology has changed.
Just like booking flights replaced travel agents, Medicare is entering its self‑service era.
What Medicare Actually Covers (And What It Doesn’t)
Before anything else, one fact must be crystal clear:
Original Medicare (Parts A & B)
- Covers hospital and medical services
- Does NOT cover the remaining 20%
- No cap on that 20%
That uncovered portion is where most seniors get hurt financially.
Medicare.gov handles Original Medicare.
We help you protect the gap.

The Old Way
